pmccarthy Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I thought a while ago when things got heated that this site adopted a policy of not bagging organisations or individuals. Anyway, we seem to be back to the old themes. It seems to me that a small and predictable group of people keep this anti-Raa slanging alive, while the majority of members ( of this site and of Raa) just ignore it. I for one, as a long time member of Raa and its predecessor, am happier now with its governance than I have been for many years. Someone has to say that! 1 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Page Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Oh! What folly. I still sit in wonder the noise of yesteryear, the old board was running with poor governance. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.. So was is this voting exercise? I say it is a case of poor governance, governed by "Rafferty's Rules". Look at Kaspers dilemma regarding the Tech. issues, really shows the Tech. Manual's/Tech.manager's disregard for the members wishes. (None) KP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Col, It is not a bother to me if a person's life skills dose not extends to spelling and grammar. It is what is in their is heart which is the large consideration. What about the people who engineeed the scuttle of the change for the medicals - those people should be degraded in the list of human assets. They are the people who should be hoyed out. KP.

billwoodmason Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Storchy, I must have missed something you've posted along the way but why can't you repair your aircraft and put it back on the register?. Has the Tech manager refused to register it or similar?. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I think It's a bit of a mess. Nice if a few of us could fix it, but that's probably hard to arrange. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the ones (they said they were the experts to fix it) at the helm are the ones who were making a big noise regarding the previous boards efforts. Looks like they are doing a worse effort, *A mess exists. *Finances are dwindling super fast. *Plus...What have we not heard. KP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Page Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Yep storchy, Long go - look what kasper revealed. Look what he revealed about the voting, he was cracked off. Cut off and every excuse was used so his views did not have to be considered. So the voting rules are just "Rafferty's Rules", altered to suit the occasion.

Keith Page Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 If you wish you can say that F_T. But why change the rules mid stream?

If they were wood ducks you would be hungry as they would not fly in a straight line so you can get a good shot so you get a feed. KP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
